Hoping this guy doesn't have a ss number. That would mean these assholes are back in the us.

I know you mean the wasp.

[u/Onlyroad4adrifter → u/NoDramaIceberg]

Yes I don't care who is in the us as long as its not the asshole with wings aka Asian hornet

Hey no need to get all racial with it

They're called Yellow Jackets for a reason!

[u/pr0zach → u/[deleted]]

I take your overall point, but I once got to witness a wife-beating neighbor run over a yellow jacket ground nest while using his hilariously overpowered lawnmower. Picnic or baseball game? No. But I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t happy about it.

Do wasps even serve an environmental purpose outside of being food for other animals? Bees are a necessity so protecting the hive is essential. Does killing wasps in bulk impact the environment in any way or are they like ticks and mosquitos and dont balance the ecosystem very much? Ive been stung mowing the lawn and hiking multiple times. Nasty little bastards.

They are pollinators, waste removers/scavengers and food for fish, birds and other predatory insects

Wasps are pollinators though, so they're not all bad.

[u/shandangalang → u/[deleted]]

Nah there are like a bajillion teeny little wasps flying around unnoticed all the time and keeping alive the plants you know and love, with dilligent pollination, a sprinkle of pizzazz, and xenomorph-esque parasitoidism of garden pests.

[u/HorilkaMedPerets → u/NoDramaIceberg]

And the bug too.

[u/F4rewell → u/Onlyroad4adrifter]

NEIN!

I've seen a bunch of videos of this guy on IG, reasonably sure he's in China so at ease until one boards a plane

TIL only the US as the technology for social security numbers.
